Use juice defender to turn off data when your phone is not being used (deep sleep), use this as a temporary measure I would say while u use the various battery stats monitoring tools to find the actual culprit.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danjng:
Sounds like an app issue. Have you installed any new apps recently that may coincide with the sudden poor battery performance? I don't use any power saving apps and leave all my Samsung features enabled and still get over a full day's worth of use.

Are you in a poor reception area? Perhaps you should consider a factory reset. If that doesn't change anything, exchange your device for a new one.

Do you have Google Now enabled? I noticed as soon as I enabled Google now and location services my battery life has suffered.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manemzjum:
How is that a problem

Are you saying that if you left your phone fully charged and didnt touch it. It would last over 4 days

and you think this is bad battery life

Many many factors can cause battery drain apps you use sync of apps,signal strength,brightness,sensors,google now,s-voice etc.

themes you use

Using black themes will use less battery because an led display will turn off the black areas of the screen etc which is how it achieves the best black contrasts.

I myself have the same use 4-5 hrs of on screen battery which i find great as i can take my phone and use it all day without a problem

people who have 7-8 hrs of on screen time per day on there phone should really seek counselling or go to AA meetings as you have a problem

As to disabling features of the phone Buying a smartphone and disabling all the features that make it a smart phone is pretty pointless if you ask me
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xChris76:
It's been the same for me. The first couple of weeks I had the phone the battery was amazing. I could last 2 days easily with heavy usage. I'd say since the most recent update I had on this phone the battery life has been draining significantly faster. I now have to charge my phone each night as it is always hovering around 30%

Do you guys think the update has anything to do with this issue?

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AhmadLight:
Hello,

I can't decide which phone is better: S4 or Note II

Maybe S4 is more powerful and more expensive as well

I've read that it has many problems like heat, battery drain, wifi disconnection, headphone jack, etc......

Note II is a good phone, may be it'll be laggy on some intense games like ASPHALT HD 8... (I'm a gamer too :D )

but I'm also concerned about the S4 features like drama shot, dual shot, and air gestures etc......

There is a thread here from March which mentioned that these features will be imported to the note II

But till now I don't know whether it's true or not.

Another Q: will a 8MP camera do well vs 13MP of the S4?

I need a good one to capture the text written on the board in my college from a distance (may be 7-12 meters far)

What do you think?

S4 or Note II?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sora9009:
mate..if you dont want to use s-pen,just buy the s4..simple as that..overall performance s4 win
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bunglebp:
Simply Note 2, FAR better than S4 im my opinion, it doesn't lag on Asphalt 8 or other games you can get all features of S4 and also pen functions and if u install DN3 ROM u can get many note3 features too, as for performance never had a problem with Note2 fast and smooth and pretty good battery considering :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AhmadLight:
But on Antutu the i9505 4G version on the JB 4.3 got about 28k while the note 2 got about 17k only :confused:

Also about the camera... S4 is a way better I think
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c1oud:
If you don't care about the much better battery, bigger screen and the s pen go for the s4.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THUDUK:
Just got rid of my s4 to return to the wonderful note 2, to be honest a lot of the s4 stuff is pure gimmick, the temperature sensor is next to useless as it is effected by the heat of the device and you holding it, the barometer similar, the extra camera features are fun for a few goes, but are never used again, the screen maybe clear and high res, but the notes is nice and large and plenty resolution for anyone, in fact some things seem to open quicker. But overall my love of the spen wins the deal.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dexterdexter:
Don't think so... It seems like, Samsung isn't going to give us, even basic Note 3 features like Air Command. But i'm sure our devs will bring camera to our Note 2; like they brought us too many in last 2-3 weeks. I'm not expecting so much from Samsungby the means of software. They will give us the base, XDA devs will do the rest :laugh:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JC_Cali:
I've been using DN3 4.3 for a few days now and it's really stable, Air command is awesome. I have a Note II AT&T, I actually thought about upgrading to an S4 but I got brave n' rooted my Note II and played with ROMs ( backed up with TB First ) and I'm sticking to Note II for sure.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] aooga:
My n7's screen is getting impossible to use with phantom touches everywhere. I'm wondering who to contact for a replacement. I bought it at best buy on launch day, so they are useless now. Will Google do anything, or do I have to go the Asus route and wait 3-4 weeks?

Hello everyone:

Here's the deal. Phone had the original rom installed, but on making a call, the screen automaticly turned off and there was nothing you could possibly do to end the call or take control of the phone again, so, I've installed another rom. It was a custom one based on LEWA. It was working too damn good, until I decided to install another rom that had a "Spanish" language support. Aaaaaaaaaaand, that was IT. Screen gets all white, recovery mode it's not working either. Flash Tool recognizes the phone and I can flash it again (even with the Custom LEWA that previously worked), but the phone just wont start.

So, I guess that this is the best place to solve this (if possible).

I REALLY want to thank everyone for reading this and I want you to know that I HIGHLY appreciate any kind of help.

Thanks!

[Motorola Atrix HD] MansonDroid:
So I know that there have been a couple threads discussing Ubuntu Touch, but I haven't seen anything as of recent. Is anyone interested in it still?

Many in these forums go out of their way to look for issues (rattling buttons - give me a break - they float in the casing over the actual electrical contacts).
